Love, Health and Awkward: Awful line of inquiry

Awful line of inquiry

By teddyissmall - 14/04/2014 06:29 - Canada - Montréal

Today, I was hanging out with my boyfriend. Everything seemed to be going well, when all of a sudden he turned to look at me with a pensive and thoughtful expression. I expected him to say something important, but instead he just said, "I was wondering, how does it feel to be fat?" FML

Today, I told my boyfriend that I gained a few pounds and thought I looked fat. He replied that I looked the same and that I shouldn't worry because he likes fat girls. I never thought I was fat before this. FML

Today, my boyfriend grabbed my love handles. It tickled, so I giggled and squirmed out of his grip. He looked at me quizzically and said, "I'm surprised you still have feeling there with all that fat." FML

Today, my boyfriend of 4 years told me that I appear to have gained some weight. After realizing that it made me feel depressed, he tried to make me feel better by making love to me. I decided to go with it. While doing so, he paused and said, "I'm sorry baby, but your weight is too much pressure for my back." FML

Today, I was doubting my boyfriend's feelings for me, so I asked him if he found me attractive. He replied, "Well, you're thin enough…" That's all. FML

Today, my boyfriend out of the blue told me I wasn't fat, that my stomach was flat and it was only my butt that was big. I thought that this was a compliment. His response? "Not at all". FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were out shopping. As he was trying on shirts, I told him that the particular shirt he was wearing looked ugly. He turned around, sighed, and said "You think? Well, your face is ugly, but you don't see me complaining about it." He was serious. FML

Today, while eating dinner with my boyfriend, I look up to see him staring at me, smiling. Hoping he wanted to say how lucky of a man he was who loved me deeply, I asked him what he was thinking. He replied, "You can't smell that yet? It was a noxious one." FML

Am I the only one bothered by the "pensive and thoughtful expression" bit? Those are synonyms. And maybe he was asking about being fat in general, not asking her personally.

If he didn't realize that was offensive when he said it, he's not emotionally mature enough to be a good boyfriend. Don't wait for him to grow up. Wait for a good man.

We don't know anything behind their relationship. He could be the best man ever for her. Just asked a simple question.

Is there any chance the question was rhetorical and not directed at you?

I wouldn't. jump to conclusions OP. If he did direct it at you though, then he's. either really daft or genuinely curious. If it bothers you then talk to him about it.

Dump him. You don't need that I your life. I just dumped my first bf and he was an abusive jerk. I swear he put the foreigner song "Cold as Ice" to a whole new meaning....
